Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strength decrease due to increased pore pressure, previously referred to as liquefaction potential, of four sands, for which laboratory Standard Penetration Tests (SPT) had previously been performed, was evaluated by cyclic triaxial tests at comparable relative densities and confining pressures. Stress-controlled monotonic R tests were performed on one sand to compare potential for strength loss due to increasing pore pressure under static versus cyclic loading. the object of both test series was to develop correlations between SPT-N values and potential for strength loss due to increasing pore pressure. In addition, material constants for evaluating an elastic-plastic constitutive model were obtained during the monotonic R tests. The elastic-plastic constitutive model qualitatively predicts behavior in monotonic R tests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than ten years have passed since the first edition was published. During that period there have been a substantial number of changes in geotechnical engineering, especially in the applications of foundation engineering. As the world population increases, more land is needed and many soil deposits previously deemed unsuitable for residential housing or other construction projects are now being used. Such areas include problematic soil regions, mining subsidence areas, and sanitary landfills. To overcome the problems associated with these natural or man-made soil deposits, new and improved methods of analysis, design, and implementation are needed in foundation construction. As society develops and living standards rise, tall buildings, transportation facilities, and industrial complexes are increasingly being built. Because of the heavy design loads and the complicated environments, the traditional design concepts, construction materials, methods, and equipment also need improvement. Further, recent energy and material shortages have caused additional burdens on the engineering profession and brought about the need to seek alternative or cost-saving methods for foundation design and construction.

Book excerpt: A Rigorous and Definitive Guide to Soil LiquefactionSoil liquefaction occurs when soil loses much of its strength or stiffness for a time-usually a few minutes or less-and which may then cause structural failure, financial loss, and even death. It can occur during earthquakes, from static loading, or even from traffic-induced vibration. It occurs w
